Spiritual Meaning of 444

Laura — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 15:33:46 +0000

Do you see the repeating number 444? Find out what the number means and how you can use it to help you in your day to day life. I have written before about other repeating numbers like 11:11 and 222 in case you are seeing those numbers as well.

The spiritual meaning of 444 is one of many repeating numbers designed to get your attention and serve as a wake up call from your spiritual guides.

444 is a very powerful number. It means that your angels are by your side and want the very best for you. They are asking that you pay attention very carefully to the signs that you see around you.

This may come in the form of a music song on the radio, an Earth angel saying a specific phrase to you at just the right moment, or seeing certain numbers or words on a license plate or road sign.

The angels will use whatever way you prefer to get your attention. They ask that you just tell them which manner of communication works better for you. It may also be seeing certain animals such as a rabbit or a bird repeatedly, such as a cardinal to acknowledge that you are indeed heard by the angels and they are giving you guidance in your everyday life through your thoughts and daydreams.

444 itself refers to an angelic presence surrounding you and taking comfort in the protection afforded you from the angels. Your angels are always near you, all you have to do is reach out to them with a thought, a thank you, or a wish or a prayer. No message goes unheard. You just may not get the answer in the form you expect.

444 also refers to movement into the 4th dimension. You can read more about that here.

Each number has its own frequency, and as you understand more about the main numbers, your guides and angels will start to show you other repeating number patterns that have more specific meanings to your day to day activities and immediate thoughts.

To me personally when I see 444, it feels like the angels have my back and are there, present, protecting you, either from danger or from your own fearful thoughts. It is quite comforting.

I would love to hear your thoughts! I invite you to leave a comment below.

Crystals and Gemstones

Laura — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 21:25:18 +0000

A synopsis of my crystals and gemstones purchases from our recent travels including a beautiful piece of Amethyst, a dowsing pendulum, and other stones.

In my last post, I wrote that I was going to take a few days off. I am back from a fairly brief vacation and thought I would share with you a few of my finds and treasures. I love it when you go somewhere for relaxation and can still manage to find items that you are really interested in.

We went to Door County, WI for a few days and then to Wisconsin Dells for a few days. It was very nice to be able to get away from the routine of the summer, which has been very busy.

So, what did you buy on vacation?

Umm…Rocks. Really cool looking rocks.

It was sort of funny, but I think I managed to find the only metaphysical shop in all of Door County, without even trying to find it. We were walking around looking at the various shops and it just found me.

I ended up purchasing a dowsing pendulum there and a very pretty bag for storing it, scroll down for photo. Here is another post I wrote a while ago on choosing a dowsing pendulum if you are interested in learning more about them.

Nearby was a great little stone shop that had a nice selection of crystals and gemstones. I of course had to buy some to add to my collection. My HB is not all that into stone shopping, so he waited patiently outside while I had my fun shopping.

In Wisconsin Dells we found the Dells Mining Company. It is a pretty interesting place where you can buy buckets of soil from North Carolina mines and whatever stones are in the bucket you get to keep. They help you identify any that are worth something too. They also have a nice selection of polished stones you can purchase individually, which is what I did.

Below are some photos of the crystals and stoned I purchased. I will be posting more about each one of the, including their healing properties, in the upcoming month, so be sure to subscribe to this site if you are interested in learning more about each individual stone.

Reiki Healing Music

Laura — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 02:46:37 +0000

I found this relaxing Reiki healing music on You Tube and thought I would share it with you. It is short, less than 5 minutes long and is perfect for relieving a bit of stress in your day.

Even if you don’t know much about Reiki, you can still benefit from the calming and healing effect it has on your mind and body. Who couldn’t use a relaxation break?

I am currently a Reiki Level I Practitioner. I will be taking the Level II Class this fall. If you want to know more about Reiki, here are a few posts I have written: The Healing Benefits of Reiki, and What is Reiki?.

For me, Reiki has been a wonderful self healing tool that I use almost every day. I thought it appropriate for myself as I will be enjoying a few days off on holiday (we really call it vacation in the States, but I like the term holiday better).

Time for a bit of rest, relaxation, calm and rejuvenation. Even if you are not going on holiday soon, take 5 minutes and you will be amazed at how calm you will feel.

Please enjoy and feel free to leave a comment below.

Are You an Adult Indigo?

Laura — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 02:33:36 +0000

Are you an adult indigo? Find out about this group of souls that incarnated with a special here purpose on Earth. Learn their special challenges and characteristics.

Adult Indigos are a group of souls that were sent as forerunners to help in the transition of consciousness of this planet. They have a unique set of talents and abilities that may not be fully recognized until well into adulthood. Their childhoods may have been emotionally difficult, as the need to learn healing in some cases has come at a premium. I have listed some books on healing here.

The purpose of Adult Indigos

The purpose of Indigos is to bring healing first to themselves, and then to others, in order to reform the wayward consciousness of Earth. Indigos are of a warrior soul that will not tolerate fakeness, falseness, or agendas. They see right through that and can pick up on the persona in an instant after meeting someone. Do not try to be untruthful with an Indigo as you will likely be put in your place rather quickly.

They are here to pave the way for the mass of Indigo children that were born in the 70′s and 80′s. They are the ones who have the real work to do, that of forcing a global change of consciousness. The Indigo adults who came before them are here to in a sense test the waters and learn the lessons that will need to be passed on to the incoming Indigo children.

What is an Indigo?

The term Indigo comes from the aura color that surrounds the physical body. If you have learned how to see auras, you may have been able to notice someone with an Indigo aura.

Typically, Indigos resonate with healing in some form or another. You may have chosen a profession in the medical area or you may be a healer yourself or you may be just learning how to heal yourself without the use of traditional medical treatments. Reiki is a good example.

They are also quite psychic. Whether or not an individual has allowed those abilities to be developed depends greatly on the level of self healing they have allowed themselves.

I have been doing a bit of research into this type of personality and do resonate with the majority of the traits I have read about. I will be posting more about the characteristics of Indigos in a future blog entry.

Resources for Adult Indigos

If you think you resonate with being an adult Indigo, I urge you to check out the following resources and discover more:

Chat Group for Adult Indigos – A moderated chat group that is full of stories, theories, and other Indigos. A wonderful resource and way to connect with others. You are not alone!

What are the Akashic Records?

Laura — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 03:02:40 +0000

The Akashic Records are a vast database of energetic imprints of all souls from all lifetimes. It is a complex energetic filing system of all thoughts, deeds, actions, and words. They are also known as the Hall of Records, The Universal Mind, and “The Book of Life”.

Akasha is a sanskrit word that means “sky”, “space” or “aether”. Imagine a library that spans as far as the eye can see and keeps expanding and building as your gaze spans across the room and from floor to ceiling.

Envision stacks of books and records lined up row after row with the knowledge of the universe. They are a record of each person’s journey of the soul through time and space. They are available to all and have no religious affiliations.

Past Lives

Do you have recurring dreams that have been the same for years? Do they take place in a distant place or a different era? You may have been seeing a past life.

Access to each of life’s journeys is housed in the Akashic Records. All manners of a persons thoughts, spoken words, and actions taken and what was learned from each incarnation can also be found here.

Accessing the Akashic records:

You may access your own Akashic records via meditation, tuning into your third eye chakra, yoga, hypnosis, and various other means. All of these methods can be developed and can be used by anyone. Read more about developing your psychic abilities.

You may access the records of another only with their permission. If you do not have permission and try to do some snooping on another, you will end up with very limited or incorrect information. The Hall of Records is well guarded and the information asked about another is only given to those who have express permission by that individual.

An accurate birth date and time of birth is of great help when accessing the records, but each person has their own energetic signature and can be found and their questions answered.

I am currently studying being able to access the Akashic records on behalf of others. I will be posting more about this at a later date as I begin asking for some volunteers to conduct practice readings.

A Channeled Message from Archangel Metatron

Laura — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 02:41:22 +0000

A channeled message from Archangel Metatron who sends love to all. Let him share with you his thoughts on truth and fear.

Channeled by Laura on July 21, 2010.

Greetings divine beings.

You are all vessels of love and light. I come to you today to bring you the following message:

What is Truth? Truth is what is. Truth is.

Why do you deny yourself truth? Why do you seek to sabotage the great strides you have made? Do you not realize how powerful you are? You daily disconnect yourself from the truth. The time is already upon us that we must come together as great beings of love and light and look upon each other with love and not fear and hatred.

The grids are shifting and there will be more chaos before the transformation is complete. You need to move towards the light. All of you do. Go within to find the answers you seek. Do not let the dribble of the day influence what you do or don’t do.

This message is intended for those who are wondering what is happening in the world and if this will be the end of times. It is indeed an ending of old outworn energies, but not an end of days in the way many are viewing it, which is through the lens of fear.

It is also a time of new beginnings. There will be points along the way in the next few years that you will have to make choices collectively and also individually to ensure that love and light remain open and accessible to all.

The choices made will determine the beginning of the next cycle of life on Earth. I know that may make some of you quite fearful and fearing of the worst possible outcomes. This is an energetic transformation that is occurring, that will help the world rid itself of the old energies of fear and hate and usher in the new energies of love and light.

Please know, dear ones, that we Angels are here for you always. Just ask us to be present in your lives. Tell us your fears and then listen for our messages to you.

A time of peace has the chance to be upon us. Your actions and decisions now will determine the beginning of the next cycle of humanity. The people whom you have placed in power can not become overly fearful, as fear takes you further away from truth. Be extremely careful with whom you give power to oversee your government. Be sure to know if the words they speak are truly from the heart, or if they come from fear.

This is now a time when those who have latent psychic and energy healing abilities will be called to serve. They are already being awakened in record numbers as we speak. There are many who have awakened slightly and are quite fearful of these abilities and do not want to accept these abilities. You may have been taught from an early age that these abilities were not real and only existed in your head.

Let me reassure you, they are quite real. Your personal guides may have been dropping repeated hints at looking at different types of healing, and perhaps you have just brushed it off as not something for you. If you have been getting repeated messages, either in coincidences or synchronicity, it is indeed guidance that can help you find your true path in life.

Many healers were placed on this Earth years earlier than were needed, in order to be acclimated to daily life and to have an understanding of how to deal with integrating the energy of the universe into a fearful society. They are being called to step forth now and follow the path of light and love.

Before I go, please let me reassure you that this all is for the better. Follow your heart and ask us Angels for guidance. Learn to listen to your inner knowing and peace will be upon you.

With much Love,

Archangel Metatron

What is Clairvoyance?

Laura — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 02:52:56 +0000

Clairvoyance (clear seeing) is a metaphysical sense that means seeing a mental image within your 3rd eye. It is also known as your 6th sense or spiritual sight.

This is probably the most well known of the metaphysical senses, or at least the most talked about. It is what most refer to and think of as psychic abilities. It is an ability that is latent in most people and can be developed through practice. It is often referred to as the sixth sense. Some individuals respond to visual interpretation easier and quicker than auditory, thinking, or feeling senses.

Clairvoyance (clear seeing) is one of the four metaphysical senses, the others being clairsentience (clear feeling), clairaudient (clear hearing), and claircognizant (clear knowing). It is one of your four metaphysical senses in addition to your five physical senses.

Types of Clairvoyant Abilities

There are quite a variety of ways to observe clairvoyance. You may have visions or visual flashes while awake or these visions can also come to you in your dreams or when you are in a very relaxed state, as pictures in your mind.

Other types of clairvoyant abilities include reading a persons aura or energy field, seeing colors surrounding a person or picking up on symbols that come to you as a picture in your mind.

Clairvoyance is the ability to see clearly though the minds eye. sudden flashes of pictures, symbols,or numbers seen in your head that have meaning. It could also be a flash of a yes or no.

Developing Clairvoyance

You can develop clairvoyance by telling your guides that you wish to develop these skills. Keep an intuitive journal of the hits you receive. If you notice any symbols, try to set aside writing time to discern what those words or symbols mean.

If this is not your strongest intuitive modality, it pays to ask your angels and guides for assistance. Then be open to the signs your receive. It could be as clear as a neon sign, or it could be a symbol of something your guides feel you need to be aware of.

When you first become aware of the picture in your mind, pay careful attention to what the first thing is that comes up as to what it means. In most cases this is the correct meaning of it. When we let our ego and thinking mind get a hold of it, we generally tend to dismiss the real meaning and make up our own stuff, directed by fears and what we think we know.

Try to pay attention to whether it references the past, present, or future? Also, did you recently tell you guides you needed information on a certain situation in your life? This could be the answer. Sometimes the answers do not come immediately.

For me, clairvoyance is not my strongest intuitive modality, but I am actively working on it, as it can be the easiest and quickest way to receive an answer to a problem I am inquiring about. I have asked for assistance from the Archangels to assist me in bringing out this gift.

What about you? Do you have any stories to share where you have received a clairvoyant hit and then it later proved to have meaning for you? I would love to hear your comments below.

What is Claircognizance?

Laura — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 19:50:55 +0000

Claircognizance (clear knowing) is a metaphysical sense in which you know something to be correct but may be unable to back up your statement with fact or how you came into that information.

Claircognizance (clear knowing) is one of the four metaphysical senses, the others being clairvoyant (clear seeing), clairaudient (clear hearing), and clairsentient (clear feeling). It is one of your four metaphysical senses in addition to your five physical senses.

How do You Know What You Know?

Do pieces of information just randomly pop into your head that you know are correct? You are using claircognizance (clear thinking). It can come in the form of predictions or premonitions, a feeling of certainty or correctness. You may have knowledge of certain places, events, situations, or people without having received the information in a traditional manner. It may come across as a sense of foreboding or deja vu.

It is the ability to recognize receiving sudden insights and understanding regarding a question or situation in your life. It relates to your 3rd eye or crown chakra.

Claircognizance means clear knowing of something that may have happened in the past, present, or future about another. Many times you will just “know” the answer, but will not be able to back up your statement with fact or how you came into that information.

I believe many people have this ability, but much of the information can go without validation, because some of the things you may “know” can cause upset and stress in others and they will not be receptive to giving you the validation if you do not have documented proof of what you are telling them.

Examples of Claircognizance

In many cases, this “knowing” may go against everything others tell you about a situation. It can certainly be isolating when you are the only one who is saying different and the general consensus says the total opposite.

Do you finish other people’s sentences because you know the answer even before they finish the thought?

Do you find yourself knowing immediately if someone is lying to you, even though you have nothing concrete to back up your thought?

How to Develop Claircognizance

Make use of automatic writing to connect with your guides and receive answers to your questions.

Meditation is also helpful in gaining clear knowing because by quietening the mind, you are able to hear answers from your guides come through to you.

Your Thoughts?

What about you? Do you have any examples or stories of using claircognizance? Please share in the comments below.

What is Clairsentience?

Laura — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 02:00:41 +0000

Clairsentience is a metaphysical sense that relates to recurring physical and emotional feelings. It is known as your gut feeling and signifies Divine guidance.

Clairsentience (clear feeling) is one of the four metaphysical senses, the others being clairvoyant (clear seeing), clairaudient (clear hearing), and claircognizant (clear knowing). It is one of your four metaphysical senses in addition to your five physical senses.

If you have ever had a physical or emotional feeling suddenly wash over you with no apparent connection to your current state of mind, you have just experienced clairsentience.

An example of this for me is pulling in to work and before I am out of the car, looking at the office I work in and getting a feeling that my boss is very upset. Sure enough, I can tell even before I talk to her or walk in the building that something has gone on with a customer or her personal life that is upsetting to her.

I think by getting this information before I walk in the door, it better allows me to prepare mentally and put up the proper shields on my energy so I won’t be drained from the experience.

Types of Clairsentience

Perhaps you suddenly feel sad or extremely anxious for no reason, or feel an unexplained sense of foreboding. You may also experience physical symptoms that are not your own or came out of nowhere.

Stomach aches, sweaty palms, instant anger, hair standing up on the back of your neck, a tingling sensation, and feeling generally sick are quite common and can give you a very good indication to change your travel plans or course of action.

Important questions to ask yourself when you have such a feeling.

Is the feeling my own? If not, whose feeling do you think it was? Usually the first name to come to mind is correct.

What was I thinking about just before I had the feeling?

Who was I thinking about just before I had the feeling?

Empathy

Empathy is the ability to sense and feel another persons emotions. These can be happy or sad emotions or a range in between. The difference is they are not your own feelings. While being able to feel another persons pain can be helpful at times, if you find yourself continually experiencing the emotions of another, you may want to look into some clearing techniques, like etheric cord cutting.

Some people have a sensitivity to touch, as in the laying on of hands to another person and you notice how you feel changes. This can be quite useful if you are in any type of the healing arts, such as Reiki or massage therapy. It can be used to discern which area of the body is in need of healing.

Psychometry

Psychometry is the ability to use touch to gain information about an object being held. Jewelry is commonly used, as it has had direct contact with the person. It can be used to tell personality traits about another via an object held in the hand. It can also be used to pick up on the past via visions received from holding an artifact.

Fragrances

Sensitivity to smells, like fragrances is another way to feel the energy of another. Many people report smelling the favorite perfume of a deceased loved one, or a favorite flower scent, even though there could be no way the scent was present in the home.

What about you? Are you clairsentient or had an unexplainable experience? Do you have any good psychic stories to share? Leave a comment below.
